Shania Twain & Alison Krauss - Forever And For Always

Forever And For Always

[@politicallyincorrectrob906]

Two beautiful voice's two beautiful ladies.

[@Krigerskjalden]

I too love this song. It's one of Shania's best songs. This version of it is great. They sound really good together, Shania and Alison.

[@ThePhotobug561]

Alison Krauss knows how to sing duets because she has such a good ear for harmony.

[@radbcc]

I am not a musician, but she can make everyone else better and that is some talent...

[@diway18]

David Fullmer Actually, both Shania and Allison are specialist in terms of harmony..... I learned to appreciate more on background vocals by merely studying Shania's records....(and) later on, I discovered Allison's collaboration with Union Station and there is another magical harmonies....

[@marcob4630]

and Shania sings with her heart !

[@georgejeffers6894]

Allison and Vince Gill can sing with anybody and make them better

[@aaronrod23]

David Fullmer so true

[@patricia2952]

Allison Kraus always harmonizes perfectly, she and Stevie Nicks are the best at that. Allisons voice is unreal.

[@tomtowle]

Alison is just focused. She is the consumate collaborator. She sings so perfectly with ANYONE. I think she is adorable in her concentration.

[@OdeeOz]

This is for my wife of 37 years. Thank you Alison Krauss, Shania Twain, and the Union Station..

[@mistyc1112]

Shania is beautiful, but my heart belongs to my girl Alison

[@Katsandoval-p8d]

Been an Alison Krauss fan since I was 3 yrs old!

[@franshoppenbrouwers5264]

Love Alison from the Netherlands

[@nilanisiriwardena5019]

@Alison Krauss Love you Alison for always. Nilani Siriwardena.

[@nilanisiriwardena5019]

@Alison Krauss I, treasure the text you sent me Alison. No words to describe my love for you. Love always & forever. Nilani Siriwardena. From, Sri Lanka.

[@Eliminator5555]

Remembering seeing this years ago. Brings back many memories.

[@Debj1951]

Alison has such a unique voice - love her to death. One of the best!!

[@etransform]

Both are stars in their own right and together they are a perfect harmony. Humility is a rare quality in show business and entertainment so it is a true sign of greatness when a super-star sings back up. Both terrific! Thanks for the post.

[@jeanniephoenix]

Right, hehe The harmony WAS great - love the guitarists~

[@deborahhesterhensley3164]

I have listened to many of Shania songs that she sang with other super stars and whether it's with Dolly or Allison she is so super and Superior!

[@lolzgirlmorgan]

I'm not a big country music fan, but I have always loved the music of both of these ladies :)

[@kenbrown2084]

Sweetheart this aint country this is Pop music.Now nothing wrong with it but don't confuse this with. Country

[@soniakiwi]

Ken Brown In your opinion what is it? Depending on one's generation, that song could be classified as folk, soft rock (1970's) or country. Shania was all about blurring musical boundaries and she left that up to the listener to determine. Even she herself stated that she put herself in the country genre because it was the closest thing to her repertoire. I am aware that trends in contemporary country music do change much like popular music. The way I see it is that country music is pop music for rural folks. Bluegrass, Red Dirt and some Americana music winds up being closer to a more traditional acoustic and even countrified sound today than contemporary country music, which jumped the shark.

[@pputnam100]

Ken Brown All modern country music is pop music, the entire CMA show is a pop event. This is far more country than Rascal Flatts which is a very good pop/rock band

[@kenbrown2084]

Peter Putnam So true glad to hear from you.

[@rickbeezer34]

I always thought Allison Krauss has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen

[@rogerpropst7768]

Bedroom eyes for sure

Yeah. She's an understated knockout for sure. I like the duet she did with John Waite. I hadn't really noticed her before I listened to that tune.

[@Maschuggy]

Jimmy Acorn I

[@cooker4409]

I think I would have a jizz in my pants moment.....If I ever got too close to her.....might even pass out......I would hope not.....extremely high-quality "Southern Belle" appeal she has.....she opens her mouth, and it's over for me......wow......what talent.....JESUS.......yummy......

[@catherinegardiner6209]

Allison Krauss losing. You

[@denisjl100]

i have always loved shania but lately i have run across her singing with allison kraus. what a talent. she is always in the background and never hogging the spotlight.

[@1pupblacky]

+Denis Lessard well I have just told people off-but not you. Alison can oversing as I call it but she cannot help it. she is so on pitch everytime. Shania so great-how do you compare? if Shania feels bad because of mutt- what chance to us normal gals have. look up the video of Jamey Johnson and Alison krauss on the david lettermen show. it was supposed to be about Jamey singing songs from hank Cochran but Alison oversang him. come on als we know you are great but do not flaunt it-

[@denisjl100]

+1pupblacky there's a reason why she is singing background for jamey johnson, vince gill, dolly parton, shania, ricky skaggs and so many others. she is good. it's not an arguement it's an opinion. i love to hear her sing and you don't it's as simple as that.

[@denisjl100]

+1pupblacky i went back and listened to the tape you talked about and i think that jamey johnson has a gentle voice and alison has to hold back her voice to keep from being too loud. in some cases she doesn't always succeed. johnson has a nice voice but not near the power of alison's voice.

[@1pupblacky]

+Denis Lessard I do not believe you texted me so quickly. first I would like to thank you for not being mean. she always says that her favorite part of music was duets. she has done some great ones. do not tell me I do not like als. I love her sometimes could she not drown out everyone she sings with. I guess that she just cannot help it.

[@denisjl100]

+1pupblacky don't sleep so well so i'm usually up. i just looked up her duet with emmylou harris (all i have to do is dream) and they blend very well. maybe alison was on her best behavior being with a big country star.

[@kenpat5]

Great combo of stellar female artists!

[@angelica-wo1qt]

Oh dear Shania!! you'r e so great!!

[@triciak.bowers3569]

Both of these women are fine singers, each in her own way; together they make a powerful and appealing type of music. Union Station is comprised of several consummate and professional musicians with enormous experience and diversity (and Ms. Krauss is an integral and functioning part of that aspect of the band with her fiddle). As a group, they make even the most mundane of music entertaining and emotionally appealing, and THAT is what music is supposed to be about. Well done!

[@robincompton5605]

I love, love Allison Krauss!! My mom and I listened to her all the time! It is one of my most cherished memories I have with my mom. She used to love to put her CD's on in the car or our house and we would sing while we were driving, cooking or cleaning the house together!! Music was a big thing between my mom and I! It's something we shared together like it was our own ( Secret's to each other/ our own language to one another!) Between her aria or mine we introduced each other to lots of different music!! We loved and enjoyed all of it, music is and will always be like a on going ( Book) that we can right back n fourth to one another even though she is no longer with me music is what keeps our relationship going on forever!! Always..mom, always...❤️Forever!!

[@debbysanroman803]

I seen her in concert and she sounds even better in person. Her band is just as awesome.

[@Krigerskjalden]

I agree with you. Alison deserves a good listening to. She has a great voice and just listen to her playing her fiddle. It is heavenly. With that said, I must admit that I prefer Shania's music. It's more me. Together they are a match made in heaven though. We've got two of the greatest acts in country and bluegrass. They should do more of this.

[@marcob4630]

What a duet: Shania and Alison in their best times. Such beautiful and gifted artists - just wonderful !

[@strawman8]

Awesome voices from Shania and Allison and their backup music.....add Jerry and Dan to the mix and hey its great. Most of the great country/bluegrass singers / pickers that I know come from small country towns, the mountain villagers like the Smokies, Appalachians, Chic Chocs, Blue, Green, White, Highland mts or other rural places and that's why this grassroots music is so close to life. Thanks for sharin.

[@Diago2000]

Beautiful!! Voices of Angels...

[@wrennobrien2077]

It's great to see and hear such talent, Shania singing the melody and Alison is weaving in beautiful tones and musical flourishes which delivers this masterclass for any would be budding performers . The whole musical performance from all on stage is flawless and those lucky enough to get to see such talent firsthand are very fortunate. Check out Alison and Yo-Yo Ma performing "the Wexford carol "

[@23kessuki]

shania is a beaut.

[@telaugh]

great harmony...Shania's tv special with Allison Krauss & Union station was fantastic. Hope Shania uses them on her next album cause it will blow you away.

[@telaugh]

@Alison Krauss thanks Alison, the voice of an angel. would love to connect on facebook. I am Tim Laughlin Windsor ont. take care.

[@sukiaki1000]

this is a most beautiful song my favorite of shania

[@risdianto3140]

Shania Twain, walaupun live suaranya tetap terjaga sangat merdu,,,aku suka 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@dancalmusic]

This two girls are (for me) the absolute best.

[@MrBlueSkyMrNight]

This song is just sweet musical magic. Hasn't lost any of it's "power" since the day I first heard it. Instantly loved it (still do). But I'm amazed at the level of Shania's music. Who else help create and sing as many great songs as she did?!? According to WIki "Twain said there is something inspirational to her about people who start relationships when they are kids, and are still in love when they are older." A rare talent like Shania and a rare kind of love seldom seen. Perfect match!

[@bluegrassreb1]

Ms. Twain..maybe the most beautiful woman in the world... (after my wife)

[@docben1541]

Of course!

[@twobears1224]

i wish i hadn,t ran acrossed this even tho it,s a great song by two great ladys..i once had my best friend tell me that she wanted me around forever..it was right after she yelled at me for not taking care of myself like i should,,saddly she couldn,t do the right things to keep me and i miss her very much...now,even more!!

[@MrShakedown1972]

That's possibly the most beautiful song I've ever heard, and performed wonderfully by the best band ever!!

[@MuggleMan]

Shania hands down best writer in the business when she branches out of performing, she will have a place in songwriting most definitely. She's a great singer, she gets your attention and draws you in. If you haven't seen it, they do a whole show with Shania, on her Up Close and Personal dvd. And I can't believe CMT didn't get the rights to that special, CBS did... then again CBS has been faithful when it comes to letting Shania do televised concert specials.

[@joep6951]

Love Shania and Alison. Beautiful together. fan

[@sunshinegirl1967]

I agree! They both have beautiful voices, different and unique.

[@sufiron]

Always Enjoy Jerry Douglas-On Dobro Guitar....And Alison Krauss and Shania Twain.

[@ormlongman266]

i am a canadian & think shania is very beautiful & WOW a special beauty, i live in manitoba not to far from her home in ontario. i am 80 BUT WILL ALWAYS LOVE HER.

[@ElevaTuMundo]

Hermosas Hermosas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! encima la canción tan ESPECIAL ;),, Me encanta

[@larryalobo]

I like Shania - she's good - but, Allison is in a class of her own for my money; classy, sings like an angel, all woman, talented with depth. Glad to hear them both - thank God for Allison Krauss and Union Station - simply fabulous and high class

[@thinwelshman1]

Alison is always on her best behaviour........such a talent.

[@donnaaldridge1878]

+thinwelshman1 Great comment. It's about the song...the ensemble...not about her. To boot - what an incredible voice.

[@marcob4630]

Don't forget Shania Twain ! It's her song

[@countrygirlcountrymusiclov5831]

thinwelshman1 ALISON IS AS FAR FROM TALENTED AS YOU CAN GET. SHE IS ONE OF THE WORST OF ALL TIME IN ANY GENRE. SHE IS LIKE A FEMALE GEORGE JONES

[@AegisNova]

countrygirl country musiclover your opinion is in a decided minority-thank goodness! 🙄

[@cczazz]

Oh Please everyone... Shania was playing her heart. How good it was to hear her beautiful voice again, with Allison Krause's exquisite voice, in the background. Thankyou Ladies! I would so love to hear you both sing with Emy Lou Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstad.

[@bleu545]

OMG! ... Shania Twain and Alison Krauss ... I'm in heaven as I listen to 2 angels sing.

[@Excadark]

shania rocks! shes so sweet! i wish she would go on tour again and come to singapore!

[@mondo78]

So many musical experts on here it is amazing. Both women have talent for sure and I for one think they did a fine job together.

[@EricRayMusic]

Absolutely Wonderful :-)

[@StimpsonJay]

Wow, talk about an insanly perfect combo. Two of the most beautiful voices of all time singing in perfect harmony. It's like the stars aligned for a split second or something and this was the magical result.

[@1966spartan1]

It is obvious the love many have for Shania, and she has a love for us, too. It is amazing that with such love being shown, Shania would stay away. There must be something else going on that keeps her away. Now concerning Alison and her Guys: They are fantastic. I could listen to them all day and not tire. Bottom line: musicians love music and love what they do. And they are fans, too. You can tell that Shania and Ali & the Boys are loving it. Keep the love coming !

[@amoskowitz0103]

No one in the history of Country Music has been 10 times better than Shania Twain. With all due respect supercubby, you are smoking your socks!

[@janedarcy5550]

Such a great team! Alison is great. Ahhh Shania is so beautiful... so refreshing to see this again. These people should work one more time!!! luv u!

[@undeadpkr121]

It just don't get any better then this.. Super stars at work...

[@craigprice9270]

Hi dolly and. Shania, I love both you guys! You are both just wonderful. Please keep up the good work. craig

[@jd450lh]

Two lovely talented ladies sing a song on a CMA awards show which today, would be considered "too country." I used to lose sleep staying up and watching the awards but now, I wouldn't waste my time or electricity watching what should now be referred to as the "crappy music awards."

[@countrygirlcountrymusiclov5831]

jd450lh HOW IN THE HELL ARE THERE TWO TALENTS WHEN SHANIA HAS ENOUGH TALENT TO MAKE UP FOR THE LACK OF TALENT THAT ALISON WILL NEVER HAVE. SHANIA JUST SCHOOLED THE HELL OUT OF ALISON. HOPE ALISON WAS TAKING NOTES ON WHAT SHANIA WAS DOING. SHANIA COULD TEACH ALISON HOW TO REALLY TRULY SING. BUT AS ANNOYING AS ALISON'S VOICE IS IT WOULDN'T MATTER IF ALISON TOOK NOTES OR NOT. NO VOCAL HELP ON THE PLANET CAN HELP ALISON IMPROVE

[@ronp8865]

My two favorite female singers of all time. So different but so beautiful together. Country meets real country.

[@larryalobo]

The reason I watch this video is for Alison and Union Station - I like Shania but Allison is the real deal - Alison adds a depth and soul to what she sings with most anyone (Robert Plant, James Taylor, Brad Pasily, etc.) Would go to see Alison anywhere, anytime. Beautiful and the voice of an Angel!

[@polliewilbur]

Beautiful women , perfect voices and they are very talented ladys.

[@Avanaih]

I luv Shinia and I can't wait for her next album.

[@noonoo6075]

Well I love them here in the U.K. 2020

[@lonetrout]

I just can't get enough of this video. Union Station is perhaps the tightest band in bluegrass/country music today. And Alison and Dan also make some of the sweetest harmonies ever recorded. Just an exceptional performance.

[@rmtube60162]

beautiful harmonizations! I'm hard pressed to name a singer that harmonizes better than Allison. She's a wonderful singer in her own right and has a way of making her harmony partner sound better!

[@drraechristopher]

ALISON KRAUSS SO PROUD OF YOU... #1 IN THE WORLD....

[@lightestlightelf]

Alison Krauss is amazing, both on recordings and live. I have been to a concert that she gave in Germany (I drove 5 hours to attend to that concert), she is so well in tune live as always. This girl sings like an angel, and the rest of the band is super cool, they really are mong the very finest musicians alive. I must say I had never been listening to that kind of music, I'm not American, and country bluegrass is not my thing, but AK and Union Station are over the top.

[@JoeInCT418]

Shania's "Up Close and Personal 2004 " live, small-audience performance was the result of this first collaberation. I have it, and its magic! Get it, you won't be sorry! STAKUS!

[@JinglerWannabe]

Allison Krauss is awesome! I love Shania too. XOXO

[@lwj01998]

I have a DVD of Shania with Allison Krauss and Union Station backing her.. It's fantastic..

[@Krigerskjalden]

I too love the way she is dedicated to her guitar that she still feels the need to move her hand like she is playing. It is cool!

[@lulielawry]

Alison has such a great voice , sorry shania...

[@bobsaturday4273]

don't her sell short , remember Allison is in her comfort zone with her own band and this is a first time for Shania , she was just gettin warmed up and it ended

[@PocoPortillo]

Union Station...listen carefully because the sound and music they create is perfection. Best blue grass on God's green earth.

[@OdeeOz]

Does kind of send a chill down the spine in that haunting "lost love' way.

[@unturnthisstone]

This is a lovely duet; Union Station are such a great band too. I love their arrangement as well as the singing of Alison and Shania.

[@jbfan2000]

their voices match good together. great performance.

[@MichaelLutz]

I love Alison Krauss's voice. Angelic

[@Chackalady]

This is soo beautiful..they are great together!!

[@mbushey1]

two very talented beautiful, classy women!

[@brookdalebill]

Stunning, beautiful, unforgettable. Masters all!

[@adventure002006]

Now there is an abundance of beauty and art. Both of these singers are powerhouses. Great to see they are able to sit down and perform togother. What a treat that was. Thanks for posting

[@johndevenny3454]

jerry springer on drums

[@bobsaturday4273]

close but with springer it would be good to set up a bass pedal on his face and do a big heavy metal solo

[@gateway8833]

I would never have noticed that, good catch.

[@Krigerskjalden]

Well Shania has in fact won five Grammy awards and around forty BMI (Broadcast Music, Incorporated) songwriter awards. She is the only artist to have three consecutive albums sell more than 10 million copies. More than 41 million albums sold in the U.S.; the top selling female artist in history; multi-platinum album sales in 32 countries. the sixth-biggest selling album of all time and 17 top ten songs, half of which reached #1.

[@starfrances]

Alison raises this to the level of a good song.

[@SuperDrJeckyl]

There is a reason Alison Krauss is carrying on as great as ever and Shania Twain has fallen off.Krauss relies on that golden voice. Shania, while talented and extremely hot, relied on the studio genius of Mutt Lange. Once the marriage ended so did Shania's career, mainly.

[@1pupblacky]

+SuperDrJeckyl no is back. a gig in vegas just like celine. you know Shania is super hot because she crosses her legs like that. I cannot do that because of bad knees. and you know she is a guitar picking fool because even without a guitar she still strums. you go girl. mutt is just that a mutt. I hope he has fun with the babysitter. I have seen that before in my own circle and it did not turn out well

[@LANNIE1015]

lovely ladies with incerdiable voices..

[@SuperDrJeckyl]

Yes a gig in Las Vegas but that is a greatest hits, hey I know her thing. I am talking her career post Mutt. He might be a jerk, and I do question his sanity cheating on a super hot piece of booty like Shania, but the guy is a genius musical producer. Alison Krauss is the best singer out there, one of the best voices ever, along with being a good fiddle player. Shania is a talented singer, but Mutt was a very big part of her success.

[@Matthew-qy7op]

SuperDrJeckyl Booty? How about have some respect for a classy lady?

[@cherylweddle3264]

Love the harmony. Superb

[@MGVC01]

2 Alison and ShaniaTwain súper voice

[@rhombi313]

Have you noticed that Allison Krauss has pretty much sang with anyone, covered anything, and been on every album possible? Its because whatever she sings, it is flawless. It makes every song better. I wish she could just sing to me all day long.

[@direfranchement]

This should have been the version released on record. This is by far the best performance of this song. I watched it when it first aired, and was blown away. It was the first I had heard of this song, and when I heard the record I was dissappointed. This grouping was perfect.

[@chinauntan]

Beautiful Song by 2 great performers

[@lwj01998]

Shania Twain "UP! Close and Personal--In the spirit of the Elvis 1968 concert special. Aired as an NBC concert event. There is bonus footage as well.

[@vancachz18]

gosh,shivers.they are great....amazing...

[@MrBlueSkyMrNight]

Everlasting, beautiful, music and two beautifully gifted women who sang it. Love it.

[@Wonder946]

I love both of these extremely talented ladies

[@davidrdeger]

I look at the thumbs down and wonder. The performance itself is excellent. The quality of the video is very good. If a person does not like the music or the singer, I would think they would simply move on. Why the thumbs down?

[@devinhykes]

what a great pair. close your eyes and listen. Relax and don't be a critic. Enjoy life and music.

[@grtoutdoors62]

Shania rocks this one!

[@LifesSoSweet]

I always loved this version more then the radio or cd versions. Allison gave it that extra touch.

[@thunderbirds1954]

im with u there....ive seen shania live and yes she's fab in a comercial way....alison is pure talent no question x x

[@JENitaliax]

i cant believe anyone would doubt Alison Krass's talent. She's an angel.

[@redslkpd]

I could life a wonderful life just listening to Allison

[@maxrawnsley1401]

The optics of both as well! The given grace is a gift for those who appreciate it! Thank you for this musik! But you are right. Abi not as Backround.....she´s born to give us more!

[@mindheartspeak]

shania delivers the emotions in the song and alison gives it a smooth cover by her and the band's perfect vocal harmony. exquisitely done!
